西方新闻专业主义的逻辑悖论及其启思

The Logical Paradox and Its Enlightenment of the Western Journalistic Professionalism

西方新闻专业主义坚信通过"客观性法则",以"新闻学的真实"替代"新闻的真实",刻意剔除了新闻真实中所蕴涵的意识存在。同时,由于新闻场是一个"非常低度自治"却"非常高度他治"的场域,新闻场与政治场和经济场之间恒定的、持久的不平等关系,致使其新闻专业主义信守的价值中立的"应然",在其不断的新闻实践中总是以忤逆的"实然"出现。西方新闻专业主义理论逻辑与实践逻辑的悖论所呈现的"绝对价值"的虚枉性,不仅可以启思人们对西方新闻原则进行祛魅,还可以帮助人们在"拿来主义"的面向中,自信地重构新闻专业主义的"中国式"想象。

It is firmly believed by the western journalistic professionalism that adhering to the rule of ＂the objectivity principle＂, It mixes up the truth in epistemology with the truth in ontology. And it deliberately eliminates the existence of consciousness from the authenticity of news. This idea exactly reflects the visual epistemological principles which are criticized by Marx. Meanwhile, be- cause the news field is a field with very low autonomy but extremely high heteronomy, and due to the constant and everlasting inequality among news field, political field and economic field, the value neutrality which should be observed by the journalism, has always been given up during journalistic practice. The absolute value in journalistic professionalism has been proved to be delusive by the paradox of theoretical logic and practical logic. And it can not only make people disenchanted with the western rules of journalism but also help people confidently reconstruct a Chinese-style imagina- tion of journalistic professionalism rather than bring-it-all.
